A photo essay of ArtConnect's recent show at the Pendulum Gallery in Vancouver is now mounted at Port Coquitlam city hall.

The Tri-City arts group staged its exhibit, titled Riverview - Our Iconic Landscape, at the Vancouver venue to pay tribute to the Coquitlam mental health institution, which is now undergoing a visioning process.

The PoCo display — on the main floor of city hall — features images from Manfred Kraus. Next month, more Riverview-themed artwork from the Pendulum show will be added by artists Sherry Carroll, Eunice Hodge and Freda Du Plessis.

 

MEXICO ART

A father-daughter art exhibit is now on show at a Port Moody eatery.

Landscape/Bodyscape features the work of Miguel Angel Guerreo Garro, a noted landscape painter who lives in Mexico, and Katalina Guerrero, who moved to Canada to study textiles at Capilano University and Emily Carr University of Art + Design.

Their exhibit is up at Gallery Bistro (2411 Clarke St.) until July 31. Call 604-937-0998.
